[Angiodysplasia of the colon and Crohn's disease. A study with vascular resin casts].
All the previous studies which have associated arteriovenous malformations of the colon with chronic inflammatory disease have always been performed on a diseased intestine. This study, which uses the intravascular injection of resin, shows morphological evidence that angiodysplasia of the colon and intestinal inflammatory disease can coexist independently. This fact suggests that in cases of severe hemorrhage in a patient with inflammatory disease of the small intestine, it cannot simply be assumed that it originates in the macroscopically abnormal intestine, and that angiographic examination is a wise measure to rule out the possibility of arteriovenous malformations in the "normal" intestine.
